We turn personal memories, photographs, videos and ideas into short cinematic films — emotionally resonant, visually cohesive and made specifically for you.
Beyond a video
A first meeting. A journey. A family story. An anniversary. A proposal. A moment no camera ever captured. VELORA turns facts, atmosphere and visual details into a complete story with its own dramatic arc.

The process
You tell us about the idea, event or person at the heart of the film. We identify the emotional centre of the story.
Photographs, home videos, voice recordings, dates, appearance details and locations become the visual foundation of the project.
We develop the structure, scenes and visual direction, and align on them before full production begins.
Scene creation, editing, colour, sound, music and selective manual refinement are assembled into one cinematic film.
You receive the finished film in high quality, ready for private viewing, an event or publication.
Formats & pricing
Pricing depends on scene complexity, the number of characters, source material and the required level of detail. The figures below are guides for a typical project; the final quote is fixed after a short brief.
Moment
from €600
Story
from €1,000
Signature
from €1,800
Full production included
Every essential production stage is already included in the format you choose.
You do not need to prepare a technical specification yourself. We turn your story, photographs, video and key details into an internal production brief, align the script and visual direction with you, and only then move into full production.
* Prices and timelines shown are for a typical project. The final quote and schedule are fixed after a short brief, source-material review and approval of the script and visual direction. Production time does not include periods when we are waiting for client feedback. Changes to an approved script or additional scope are quoted separately.
Why Velora
We create a coherent film, not a sequence of impressive shots. Technology supports the production; it does not replace writing, direction or taste.
01Story first, visual choices second.
02Characters and details remain consistent from scene to scene.
03Every scene belongs to one coherent visual language.
04Editing, music, sound and manual quality control complete the film.
Frequently asked
An idea and a few references are enough to begin. For a personal film, we typically need photographs of the people involved, a short description of the story and key details. Video and voice material are optional, but can make the result richer.
Yes. This is one of the format’s defining possibilities: childhood memories, journeys, imagined episodes or stylised scenes can be visually reconstructed from your materials and descriptions.
Accuracy depends on the quality of the source photographs, available angles and scene complexity. Before production, we assess the material and clearly identify where artistic interpretation may be required.
Moment includes 1 revision round; Story and Signature include 2. One round means one consolidated list of changes to the presented version within the already approved script, characters and visual direction. A new script, scene, location, period or substantial concept change is additional scope.
Yes. The format works well for gifts, proposals, anniversaries and family occasions. The project can remain private and does not need to appear in the VELORA portfolio.
Typical timelines are 4–6 business days for Moment, 7–10 for Story and 10–14 for Signature. The final schedule is fixed after the brief, source-material review and approval of the script and visual direction. Production time does not include periods when we are waiting for client feedback.
Additional scope includes principal characters beyond the base package, extra scenes / locations / periods, substantial rewrites after script approval, extra revision rounds, complex lip-sync, voice cloning, professional voice talent, original composition, additional language or edit versions, vertical deliverables, 4K and rush production.
Yes. The brief, script approval, review of work in progress and delivery of the final film can all take place online.
